I am soon buying the HP Tuners programs and was wondering what tables should I be changing around. I understand some tuning but basically I want the tune I make to be better than any hand held programmer such as hypertech. Help?

talk to allen nellson at nelson performance he might b able to help u out
Thats like buying a do it yourself atom bomb kit and asking where to start...LOL
Go to the HPtuners site and spend about a week or more reading the forums
In order to get the perfect tune, it requires hours of logging and fine tuning.
Basically it comes down to:
Optimizing the timing tables
Optimizing air fuel ratio
Setting up the transmission to your liking
Get all those done and you will have the perfect tune.
But seriously, like Cowl said, it is a steep learning curve, so start reading now and learn all the basics before attempting. After that, it is easy.
LOL at the Atom bomb... And you're out of azle? I live in sorta close to you. It takes me about 35-40min to get to azle.Quote:

no really, tuning isnt some voodoo art, engines havnet changed much. how we control them is ALWAYS advancing.

First you need to understand how everything in the engine is related and what each sensor's purpose is and an idea of how they work.
